USRAC Grand American

[budrichard]

This appears to be a USRAC manufactured Grand American and is consistant with the configuration of only one set of barrels for a USRAC 'Grand American'.
The engraver is Salerno.
It is a 20 gauge with 28" barrels rebored to IC/Mod. It is listed as "100% new condition" but with being rebored, I can't quite agree with the condition.
I have no idea of how many USRAC 'Grand American's were manufactured and whether you like Salerno's rendition is up to you.-Dick

Originaly the Grand American produced by Winchester had at least 2 sets of barrels. The made a 410 Ga. 1 set of barrels with #6 engraving to sell at the Las Veges Gun show orginaly build as a Grand America. Later they changed the name of the gun as a #6 engraved gun and not Gran American.

Jasper Salerno retired from Winchester in Dec. 1977. This was a few years before USRAC took over. The only in house engravers that worked at USRAC were Nick Kusmit, Joe Crowley and myself. I have all of Jaspers original work records in my posession. This is the only set there is.
